Appreciate and try to recite the following beautiful passageIt is a well-known fact that large numbers of nations have been involved in space exploration and spent billions of dollars on it for over fifty years. People, who against space research believe that most of space exploration should be eliminated, even be banned, owing to its incredible expense of money as well as scientific and human resources. By the contrast, supporters of the space program confirm that the exploration of outer space has numerous positive effects on human beings. This point has been proven through hundreds of useful products, such as personal computers, heart pacemakers and freeze-dried food. As far as Im concerned, I strongly believe that the money in the long run is well worth spending on outer space exploration.话题预测：恒星科学、生命的发展、太空旅行和重力等天文学知识是高考的命题点，高考对这类题材的考查主要体现在：1）单项填空中该话题的设置背景；2）完形填空、阅读理解及书面表达中均可直接把这类题材设置成阅读和写作材料。2.
